Ivan Semeniuk, the US Bureau Chief for New Scientist, posted an article about astronomy in SL on the New Scientist space blog. It mentions Chaac’s planetarium and telescope at the ISM, among other things.

The Washington Times did an article that talked about the SciLands, particularly the University of Denver and their new NRC project, in an article on August 2. Other organizations in the SciLands are also mentioned.

The July/August issue of Technology Review has an 11-page cover story that features several islands in the SciLands: Science School, ISM’s Spaceport Alpha, and NOAA’s Meteora. The online edition also has several video clips from these islands.

Tectonic Nabob made a neat ant simulation on Elon sim. Wagner James Au (formerly Hamlet Linden) wrote about it on his famous New World Notes blog, and that got pointed to by BoingBoing. Very cool! Check it out.
